Honest car reviews both big and small
PRE-RELEASE REVIEW: Sidecar racer unique, weird, unsuccessful, but a cool die-cast model ... The mid-1960s were a wild and revolutionary time for race car design and technology at the Indianapolis 500, the predominant race in the world at the time. The era saw roadsters with their engines in the front replaced by racers, such as Lotuses, with... Continue Reading →
New Hybrid Accord comfy family sedan with top-notch mpg ... Honda’s Accord is a car that’s hard not to like. It’s comfortable, handles well and provides a first rate ride. There’s room for four or five adults and the trunk is sufficiently large. Sexy it ain’t. Now add a hybrid power system and well,... Continue Reading →
Rare 7-Liter Hardtop beautiful in 1/24 scale ... As a kid I saw a lot of Ford Galaxies around the neighborhood and some of my northern Indiana relatives who farmed had them and weren’t afraid to run them out in a cornfield if necessary. But rarer was the Galaxie 500 7-Liter Hardtop, a luxury model that wasn’t... Continue Reading →
New VW Passat hits for the cycle ... It may be a bit early in the calendar year to talk about hitting for the cycle, but the 2017 Volkswagen Passat does just that. Rare is the mid-size car that delivers healthy power, refined handling and ride along with a quiet interior. Often a sedan with... Continue Reading →

New Nissan Pathfinder more civilized, comfy ... My Navy son had a Nissan Pathfinder years ago and it was a true sport-utility truck, built on a truck chassis and able to go off-roading with the other utes of the day. Pathfinder has been around now for 30 years, but those trucklike days are gone as more... Continue Reading →
'33 Cadillac Fleetwood long on style ... There have been some fine luxury cars made in the United States, exemplary machines that set the auto world on its proverbial ear. Pierce-Arrow, Packard, Duesenberg, Auburn and Cadillac come to mind. Only Cadillac is left, but that’s because GM kept it alive through the Great Depression when it... Continue Reading →
New Q60 emphasizes performance, but ride suffers ... Driving similar cars back to back puts both into perspective, an unfortunate turn for the sporty Infiniti Q60. I’d driven the Mercedes-Benz C300 coupe with 4Matic, its all-wheel-drive system, the week before I slipped behind the wheel of the new Q60, which replaces the fine G37 in Infiniti’s lineup....

Spellcheck went crazy with this Lots of red lines below my copy when I wrote this blog entry about the Open Rekord. It kept wanting to change it to "Record". You know me and odd ball cars. I was actually running through eBay looking at promo models when I came across a Record, oops, Rekord. More... Continue Reading →
1957 T-bird wonderful in white! ... Early Thunderbirds were a lovely blend of two-seater styling and boulevard cruiser with dandy hooded headlights and tiny jet-like fins on the tail. This was Ford’s effort to Americanize the sports car market that the British car makers had created after World War II, and it worked. Thunderbirds were... Continue Reading →
